Halloween - Part 2 - Inspiration

"Halloween is the one night a year when girls can dress like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it."

To be honest, I have no idea what this isbut I'll go as it next year

"But," you say, "I don't know what to wear for Halloween this year and I don't have a spare change of some country's traditional costume to wear. Should I go to the store and get a costume?"

Stop right there, civilian! Halloween is fun because you either 1) spent months painstalking making a detailed costume that about three people will get, or 2) throw a costume together from whatever you have lying around the house. Store bought costumes usually blow and should only be bought as a last resort, such as if your planned costume perished in a fire and you have a party to go to as your house is still smoldering.Usually store costumes are itchy, expensive, and barely hold together through the night. (Store bought parts of costumes are OK though.)

But where to get an idea for a costume? Fear not, citizen. The Internet is here to help you.
